Little Burrito

Little Burrito
  You're quite a lass
Please don't stumble
  You might break your -- last
  set of ankles you'll ever have

Oh, Little Burrito
  You're full of class
Much better to have that
  than a great big ole -- tank of gas

Little Burrito 
  Please stay on the grass
I wouldn't want to have to whack you
  right there in your -- spyglass

Well, little burrito
  We've managed to amass
a whole bevy of gawkers, just-a
  hopin' to read the word -- BASS

Aw I think Burrito is a great name for a burro. Specially if it's a little girl. This is too cute Gershon. It left me with a smile on my face. God Bless, JB PS As for my knee replacement I had a choice I could throw up from the pain or I could throw up from the drugs. I feel your pain my friend.

Thanks for the love on this one, Judy... As for knee replacement, it struck me as insane to try and bear such pain, especially for no guarantee of gain. (I sure didn't get much, esp. relative too all the pain, then and now).

Very clever my friend. It took me awhile to catch on but that made it even more delicious. Well done. Stay frosty my friend.

Catchy light poem Gershon, and kept it "G" rated. Bill

Actually, all my poems are 'G-rated.' 'G' for 'Gershon.'

Very clever and done with class. You have penned a kick bass poem. Move Little Burrito to the head of the class.

Little Burrito tried to go the head of the class, but his tail got stuck between his legs somehow...

(chuckling) Ha! You didn't sucker me in on this one, gw. I knew it all along! As I turn 80 on Sunday, I want you to know this old man is harder to prank! Incidentally funny man, "little burrito" is redundant. A "burrito" is a little burro." Isn't it? On the other hand, maybe it's that small wrap you get in a Mexican restaurant. I don't know!!!!

I think you're right, Milt. Now, since a burro is a little donkey, I guess that puts a burrito squarely behind the cart, if not under it.
